Intel Core i5-4670K vs Intel Core i7-2760QM

Core i5-4670K vs Core i7-2760QM benchmarks

According to the hardwareDB Benchmark tool, the Core i5-4670K is faster than the Core i7-2760QM. Furthermore, our gaming benchmark shows that it also outperforms the Core i7-2760QM in all gaming tests too.

Our spec comparison shows that they have an identical amount of cores but the Core i7-2760QM has more threads. These CPUs have different clock speeds. Indeed, the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher clock speed compared to the Core i7-2760QM. Also, the Core i5-4670K has a slightly higher turbo speed. The Core i7-2760QM outputs less heat than Core i5-4670K thanks to a significantly lower TDP. This measures the amount of heat they output and can be used to estimate power consumption.

Most CPUs have more threads than cores. This technology, colloquially called hyperthreading, improves performance by splitting a core into multiple virtual ones. This provides more efficient utilisation of a core. For instance, the Core i5-4670K has the same number of threads as cores. This means the the CPU does not support hyperthreading.
